Adobe Reader - Open in SuSE 11 full screen

I was having issues with the reader plugin for Firefox on a linux terminal so I am abandoning the plugin all together.  I am switching to use acroread and open a new Reader window instead of a tab within Firefox.
Can anyone tell me which file controls the Reader to open in full screen window?  I have firefox open to a web page, I click on a pdf, a new window opens ( Adobe Reader window, not a firefox window)  with the PDF.  This window is only about 1/4 size and I want to have it open full screen.  If I resize the window by using the corner handle, every window after that one is full screen.  Problem is, I have to make this change on a large number of remote machines and a file change is the only way I can do it.
I thought it was either ../ Adobe/9.0/Preferences/reader.prefs or ../ Adobe/9.0/Preferences/mozilla/prefs.js but not seeing anything pertinant there to the change.
Any thoughts?
SuSE 11
Firefox 3.6
Adobe Reader 9.4
Thanks,

yet another problem with Adobe X1 and where is Adobe to own up to the mutlitude of problems with this release- missing in action!!

    I have adobe acrobat 11 reader writer I want to use the pointer symbol on full screen instead of the hand, iwas able to do it on adobe 10 also when in full screen i can't open attachments unless i right click and open it then it boots me out of full screen is there any way i can click on the attacment without going out of full screen

    I don't know why the change, but the pointer appears in the same way as it does on the main screen, not a pointer. There does not appear to be anyway to change it. You may want to submit a comment to the Features Requests: Acrobat Feature Requests. I also submitted this as a bug.
    As a clarification, your "adobe acrobat 11 reader writer" is not informative. There is Acrobat 11 and Reader 11. Writer is not a product as such. So you have referred to Acrobat in a contradictory manner. In the future, please just indicate Acrobat 11 or Adobe Acrobat 11.

  • Adobe Reader Opens Blank Screens

    I've tried searching the forums w/o success...
    When I open a PDF file on-line adobe reader opens a blank or black screen. I have deleted the old reader app and reloader another (reader 7, 8 and tried 9)... checked for updates... ran utilities etc. Nothing seems to work.
    I'm running G4 iBook with 10.4.11

    The new plist file won't be generated until you launch Adobe Reader first. At this point, I would send the current Adobe Reader application to the Trash and download a new one. Go here; http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html?promoid=BUIGO

  • Adobe Camera Raw window-Only full screen?

    I use Elements 7.0.  In an attempt to improve my photography, I’ve been concentrating on getting as close to a proper exposure in camera using zone system etc.  To further get close to the appropriate exposure after the shot is taken, I’ve begun to shoot in raw.  I’ve bought a couple of books, videos etc. and I’m getting the basics down fairly well.
    I have one basic question.  I’ve searched help both in Elements and within this forum and I can’t find anything that addresses my question.
    When I select a nef image (Nikon D90) in the Organizer and go to “Edit” and then “Full Edit”, the Adobe Camera Raw box opens up in full screen with the selected image displayed.  No part of the desktop is displayed, including the taskbar.
    Is there a way to open up ACR that is not full screen?  I’m so new that I still need to refer to help to figure out what certain sliders do.  I have a 25.5 diagonal monitor, so I have the screen real estate to have a fairly large ACR window while at the same time displaying a help screen.
    Thank you for your input.

    Not sure if this will help, but on my ACR to the right of the Preview checkbox there is a window-double-arrow symbol that toggles full-screen mode in ACR so even if ACR started up in full-screen you could unmaximize it and then resize it somewhat smaller.  I don't know how to start it up non-maximized in the scenario you describe because I don't use that scenario and my ACR starts up in whatever mode I last closed it, full-screen or not.

  • I have two screen on my PC. Adobe always opens on the second screen. I would like to change this. Ho

    I have two screens on my PC Adobe always opens on the second screen. How do I change this to open on the first screen.

    It should (should) stay where you close it from, especially if you have it maximized on that monitor. I can't guarantee that because I'm having the same problem with Firefox this morning. I always open it on my secondary montior, and today it will only open on the primary.

    Mountain Lion is set up to close windows when you quit a program instead of saving them. To change this, put Safari in full-screen mode, move the cursor to the top, open Safari menu while holding Option key and close Safari from the menu.
    If you want to do it automatically with all programmes, open System Preferences > General, and deactivate "Close windows when quitting an application"

    I have the same question.  This is also made more difficult as apple has taken away the handy full screen icon on the upper right hand corner.

  • Always open safari in full screen

    For months my imac has always opened safari in full screen now it doesn't n. How do I get this back and how do I keep it from happening in the future?

    Step one is to create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the issue persists.

  • Safari status bar disappears.  I have tried clicking on show status bar and it will only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen.  I can not minimize the open page only full screen or close the browser.  Any idea how the rectify this

    Safari status bar disappears. I have tried clicking on show status bar, under the View tab and it will only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen. I can not minimize the open page, only full screen or close the browser. Any idea how the rectify this issue?

    One enters and exits full-screen with control+command+F keys. This is on the View menu in Safari. Optionally, the green traffic light in your browser title bar, if you roll over it, has the full-screen control it it. While in full-screen mode with Safari, moving your mouse pointer virtually up, and off-screen reveals the Safari title bar again, and you can click the green traffic light to exit full-screen mode.
    You can hide/show the status bar by simply typing command+/. This too, is on the Safari View menu. and in 10.10.1 — it works reliably for me.

  • All of sudden my iphone 4s any picture I take outside I cannot forward via email or text and I can only see it, in the camera roll. When I try to open the picture full screen it is blank. Anyone have any ideas to fix it?

    Close out of the camera app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    Then do a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Then check your camera roll again.

  • How can I stop ID from opening docs in full screen

    How can I stop ID from opening docs in full screen in ID 5.5?

    You didn't answer the OS question, but I'm going to presume it's some version of OS X. This has been, I think, a common complaint among Mac users, but as a PC person I don't remember what exactly can be done about it, if anything. On thing you might want to try is using the Application Frame.

    Well the app must have worked at one point if you have important data in it. Maybe you should seek help on the Adode Reader for iOS web site.

    Have you rebooted the iPad and then tried the app again? Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Open a SWT full screen shell on PocketPc

    Hi to all, i want to open a SWT full screen shell on PocketPc, with aim to hide the win mobile bar , and hide the win close button of application!
    It's possible? How i can do it?
    Shell s = new Shell(disp, .... ? ....);
    Thanks to all,
    Muzero

    I suppose that you have this exception when the second window is initiated...
    Excuse my remark, it may be perfectly stupid : do you have two screens? The full screen window is supposed to show itself on the user's second screen.
    Or maybe the screens are not handled the same way on each computer? (I'm not used at developping applications working on two screens...)
    thanks for your help

  • Click on an icon, which opens up a full screen swiping gallery

    I have a project I am doing right now, which is basicaclly a book which showcases various printed materials and presentations.  The book is laid out where each page has a subject with a photo, a brief description and then 3-6 icons underneath which represent the different examples (brochure, presentation, etc.).  I want to be able to touch an icon, and then go to a full screen gallery where you can swipe through the various images.  I can do this with keynote (transparent keynote widget) but with keynote, you cannot swipe between slides.  Any ideas?

    Perhaps my first post was not clear.  I want the ability to touch a graphic icon button and then automatically launch a full screen gallery.  That is not possible with a gallery widget.  A gallery widget cannot open automatically to full screen and I cannot hide it or have a graphic icon represent it on the screen.  I can create a keynote that is 0% opacity and overlaps the icon button so that when you touch the icon, keynote opens in full screen automatically.  The only downside is that I do not get the swiping functionality, hence my question

  • Can't open web pdf document: Adobe Reader 10 stops at welcome screen

    I installed Adobe Reader X.
    Now, when I open a pdf file from the web, the browser (either Google Chrome, Opera or Firefox) downloads the file and opens Adobe X.
    Funny, I thought. Up to this date (using Adobe 9) the browser opened the file into a browser window, using the plugin.
    Of course, I went into Reader Edit/Preferences/Internet and checked the "Display PDF in browser" to no avail: instead of opening the pdf inside the browser, the browser launches the Reader X program.
    However, after downloading the pdf and opening Reader X, you find a nice gorram welcome screen.
    As there is no way to close that screen (you have to choose one of the documents opened in the past or pick a document from the disk), Adobe Reader will not open the file I just picked in the browser. It just sits there waiting for me to pick one of the options of this welcoming screen.
    Of course, the page with the files I'm trying to download uses an script or something similar to load them, so I cannot right click on any of the files to download them to a folder and then open them using Reader's "Open file" option.
    The file I'm trying to open is this one: http://www.docs.sony.com/release/DCRTRV19.pdf
    The page where the file resides is this one: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=DCRTRV19&template_id=1&region_id=1&tab=man uals#/manualsTab
    So, how in heaven do I open this file from my browser? (as I said, Opera, Chrome and Firefox all display the same behaviour. I haven't tried IE and I refuse to do it).
    To be sincere, in Firefox the file opened once. I read the first pages and then I made the mistake of indicating to the browser that it should use the Adobe X to open pdf files. (Firefox "offered" that option out of its "own free will").
    Now I have the same problem in Firefox: I see a nice blue bar that indicates the percentage of the file downloaded and, when it reaches 100%, Adobe opens and "freezes" the browser, because Reader sits there at the welcome screen and the browser is waiting for the file to open.
    Of course, the help for plug ins at Firefox and Opera (I haven't checked Chrome) says simply: download Adobe Reader and that's it.
    I frankly hate this behaviour: up to this date Reader has been the source of simplicity, the example of a software that does only what it was made to do, sitting quietly in my PC, churning pdf files without the slightest complain, a veritable jewel among poorly designed software.
    As this unclosable welcome screen seems to me a blatant attempt by Adobe to undercut the many web sites that offer to translate PDFs to Word documents, my only thoughts are: thanks, people at Adobe! You have managed to break the unbreakable.
    Can anyone help me? This day has been a nice one up to this moment...

    Please let me know the following details:
    1. The exact version of Adobe Reader on your system. You can get the same by clicking on Help > About Adobe Reader or getting the same information from the Add/Remove Programs section in the Conrol Panel. If its not the latest version of Reader i.e. 11.0.03, please download the same from: http://get.adobe.com/reader and see if it solves the issue.
    2. Does the issue also happen if you just launch the Reader application alone without launching any PDF.
    3. Are you using any 3rd party plugin for Adobe Reader. If so, please remove the same and see if it solves your problem.
    In case you arent sure regarding the same, please follow the below steps and see if it helps:
         a. Navigate to the Reader installation folder. Usually its C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 11.0
         b. Ensure that Adobe Reader is not running and delete the entire "Reader" folder
         c. Initiate a Repair transaction for Adobe Reader from the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
    4. Try temporarily disabling the Anitivirus software, and see if it solves your issue.
